Thanks hello, asking for the care tag was good advice.
The seller came back to me, saying he couldn't take a pic, because the tag is too small and offered explanations on how to clean a scarf instead.
I mailed back, saying the reason I wanted to see the tag, was to make sure the scarf is authentic.
He answered that there is no need not to worry, and even though there are many fakes around, his is definitely not, as his wife works for Hermès!
Well, that's a hell of a guarantee, isn't it?

Since when did a Kelly 32cm in Togo cost 13,906.13 as stated in the description

Whoa, you could almost buy two from the boutique for that price!!! Is the bag even authentic?

^Get this.......The seller just added some info...The price is 13,906.13 because the bag was purchased...in France

he will include the receipt. Kudos to the person who asked about the price!!!!!

One way to stop them is to get the police involved. That's waht your friend should do. Hope she gets her money back.

These people have got to be stopped,the link above shows the seller with another id but using the exact wording to sell a bag my friend has just bought, hello confirmed that is fake too.My friend has given them over £2000.00 and someone could just as easy give them £3000.00 for this bag.

Glad you asked for that care tag pic.

You can try, but when I reported this kind of theft to ebay in the past they basically did nothing about it. I think Sandiaexchange is the only person who can report it.

CobaltBlu · May 31st, 2008, 03:36 PM

It never hurts to report them, its not that time consuming. If we have both auctions, we can use option 3 in my signature below. Many many times we have seen ebay pull auctions, so lets just keep reporting.

I always report fakes when I see them, and if I am really riled up I use option 3 and unload on ebay all the reasons why it is a fake....grrrrr.

hello2703 · May 31st, 2008, 04:07 PM

Thanks everybody for your kind words.
